The Quabbin (?sp) Resevoir in Massachusetts was formed by flooding an area 
that required moving something like 15-20 towns.  They even moved all the 
graves in the towns to a large new graveyard.  Considering the discussion we 
have been having, I would love to be able to pull up the C-Span coverage of 
that meeting (but as I recall it was pre-tv, or at least pre-color/cable).
